Was this a good deal????

Hi, I got Super Mario, Mario Kart and Mario and Sonic at the Olympics all on DS and A bikini and a apir of Diamante Snadals all for under £50.00

I think this was a good deal, do you all agree?

Basically what happened was yester i rodered all this from Bargain crazy (30% off) then when i was going through checkout it said Mario kart and olympics was now out of stock. Even though i was highly annoyed i ordered the rest (Super mario, bikini and sandals) for £24.95 inc p&p.

So when i went on their site again today i noticed that the two games that they told me where out of stock were now in stock.I was so annoyed so i phoned them and explained.They told me that if i reordered today they would refund the new £3.95 p&p.I told them that wasnt good enough as i had the 30% discount yesterday. Off she went to speak to the manager.She came back and said they had this new 17% today. I still said this wasnt good enough as had it of let me order it yesterday instead of saying it was OOS i would of got 30%. She went off to the manager again and came back and said well it wouldnt of mattered anyway as the 30% excluded electricals and games.I said how could that be when i got the 30% off super mario, she went to speak to manager again. Came back and said i must of put the order through why they was updating systme so it was a glitch it let me have 30% off. So then i said fine can i speak to manager please. She said yes hold on. Then would you guess it, she came back and said if i put the order for the other two games through she would refund the difference from 17% today to 30% yesterday and refund the new delivery.

Sorry for long explanation but thought this might be handy if anyone has had similar or does in the future as we all bargain crazy take a lot of things off website or say OOS when in fact they are not!!A little bit of persuasion can sometimes go a long way.Im glad i didnt give up when they first said NO!!

i lurrveeeeeeeee bargain crazy lol we have a store near us im always in there haggling with the manager its always my first port of call for electricals, some times they only have c**p but 9/10 i get what im after!! and at a price im willing to pay ...... i love haggling the OH waits in the car says he hates the place but always asks how much i got off when i return!!
